1. CHAPTER
SAFETY
1.1 INTRODUCTION
9 Pay attention to all the safety and operation regulations mentioned in this handbook, this way the
accident probability will be minimized and the life of machine will increase.
9 Do not make any modification on the machine without taking the approval of Manufacturer.
9 Prior the assembly, starting and maintenance of the machine ensure that the handbook is carefully
read by related personnel (operators, maintenance personnel etc).
9 Ensure that the maintenance and operation of the machine is only made by competent personnel
with sufficient training.
9 In case the directives, processes and safety regulations are not complied; it may cause accidents,
damage and injuries.
9 If the operation of the compressor is not safe;
o
Never start it.
o
Notify this situation to other related persons.
o
Put a warning label explaining this situation on a visible place of compressor.
o
In order to avoid the uninformed operation of the compressor; turn off the main circuit breaker
or remove power cables.
1.2 PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
9 The company officials should be very sensitive and careful for ensuring that the operators of the
compressor take all personal safety precautions and to comply with all related standards.
1.3 PRESSURE LINE CONNECTIONS
9 In order to efficiently run the compressor; make sure that all devices and equipment you have
chosen are in conformity with the compressor’s capacity and operation pressure. Select suitable
filter, piping and air hose. Our sales and service personnel will help you in this matter.
9 Make sure that none of the air circuit equipment and connections are leaking, deliberately
misassembled and are not subject to excessive heat variations and are not subjected to dust, gas,
humidity etc. type of corrosive environmental factors.
9 Stop the compressor before removal of any connection or equipment (filter etc.) and make sure
that internal pressure is completely discharged (check that the oil receiver is empty and the
pressure gauge value is at 0). In order to avoid any damage and injury, after shutting off the
compressor wait for the decrease of the foam of the oil in oil receiver. Do not forget that when
there is pressure in the oil receiver and in case of removal of oil tap or some other element; the
hot and compressed oil may splash and cause injuries.
9 Keep the human beings and living things away from the exit of compressed air (nozzle, blow out
exit, exhaust etc) and take necessary safety precautions.
9 Do not spray compressed air on human beings. Do not use compressed air in personal cleaning.
9 Do not breathe the compressed air of the compressor. Do not use it for ventilation purpose.
9 Do no make jokes with air hose for avoiding severe accident and injuries.
9 Do not vary the pressure adjustment of pressure switch and safety valve. Periodically carry out the
functional checking of safety valve.
1.4 FIRE AND EXPLOSION RISK
9 Do not allow accumulation of oil, petrol, thinner, solvent etc. inside and around the compressor.
Clean immediately if you see.
9 In case of potential fire hazard, immediately turn off the compressor and switch off the main
switch. Afterwards, remove all reasons that may cause flame, spark and other fire constituting
reasons. Do not allow smoking in your environment.
9 Never allow accumulation of oil on the insulating material inside the cowling, on the outer surface
of compressor or within the compressor cabinet. If necessary obtain a cleaner that may clean
these accumulations. When needed remove the insulating material and replace. Never use
inflammable material in cleaning process.
9 Switch off the power of the compressor in case of repair, cleaning or other treatment in the
cabinet.
